Answer:

Membership in the House needed to be capped to prevent an excessive number of members, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Passed by the Congress of the United States on 18th June 1929, the Reapportionment Act was a combined registration and allotment law. This act established a perpetual process for allocating a fixed 435 seats in the House of Representatives of the United States according to each census.

The correct answer to this question is that traditionally, congressional districts were redrawn to set up safe seats for the political parties. Prior to the implementation of the Reapportionment Act of 1929, the Republicans tried to seize over the presidency and both houses of Congress, so that absolute rule would be exclusively through the Republicans and that no Democrat would have any say over how to administer America. Clearly, this was a very precarious move and so the Reapportionment Act of 1929 had to be passed so that the state legislatures would draw between the district lines. The law <span>created a permanent method for apportioning a stable 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives with accordance to each census.</span>
